  • Publication number: 20080090867
    Abstract: The invention relates to azole derivatives of the general formula I as defined in the present application as well as to their uses in treatment of conditions that would benefit from their inhibitory effect on hormone sensitive lipase, HSL, an allosteric enzyme in adipocytes which is inhibited by insulin and is responsible for the breakdown of fats in fat cells and thus for transferring fat constituents into the blood stream. Inhibition of this enzyme is therefore equivalent to an insulin-like effect of the compounds of the invention.

  • Patent number: 7253322
    Abstract: The present invention describes a process for the preparation of ethyldimethylamine and triethylamine with the following steps: (i) reaction of a mixture of diethylamine and dimethylamine with ethylene in the presence of a catalyst from the group of alkali metal dimethylamides, alkali metal diethylamides and alkali metal hydrides (ii) removal of the catalyst (iii) distillation separation of the resulting mixture in triethylamine and ethyldimethylamine and optionally diethylamine and dimethylamine (iv) optional return of the catalyst and of the starting amines to the reaction. The process according to the invention permits the coproduction of ethyldimethylamine and diethylamine in a simple process.

  • Publication number: 20070004121
    Abstract: A method for producing an electronic assembly and an electronic assembly which has been correspondingly produced are specified. In this case, CMOS structures are formed in a semiconductor substrate to form a circuit and, after the CMOS structures have been formed, at least one electrical conductor is introduced, in a low-temperature process into an opening in the semiconductor substrate in such a manner that the electrical conductor is formed between a first side and a second side, which is opposite the first side, of the semiconductor substrate to connect the circuit. The electronic assembly allows a close arrangement of electronics and detectors and is suitable, for example, for a medical apparatus.

  • Publication number: 20060275319
    Abstract: The invention relates to a strain of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae which, owing to deletion of the genomic sequences, no longer synthesizes hexose transporters and, as a consequence, can no longer grow on substrates with hexoses as the only carbon source, and whose ability of growing on a substrate with a hexose as the only carbon source is restored when it expresses a GLUT4 gene.
